Nursing management of epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor-induced toxicities.
New drug technologies can pose a challenge for nurses, whether it is by educating patients about potential side effects or by helping them deal with sequelae for which there has been little research. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors are new, targeted cancer therapies that are being prescribed with more frequency. Common side effects of EGFR inhibitors include skin rash and dia...
متن کاملAltered Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) in Glioma
EGFR is a key molecule in cancer cells. EGFR signaling was shown to promote tumor cell proliferation and survival, invasion and angiogenesis and mediate resistance to treatment, including ionizing radiation in preclinical models. We extracted proteins from astrocytoma (III and IV) oligodendroglioma(IV) tumors and normal brain tissues and then evaluated the protein purity by Bradford test ...
متن کاملAssessment of epidermal growth factor receptor status in glioblastomas
Objective(s): Our previous study showed that a newly designed tracer radioiodinated 6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-7-ethoxy-4-(3'-iodophenoxy)quinazoline ([125I]PYK) is promising for the evaluation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status and prediction of gefitinib treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR is over-expressed and mutated also in glioblastoma. In the present study, the ...
متن کاملAdverse Reaction to Cetuximab, an Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitor.
Dear Editor, Inhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a new strategy in treatment of a variety of solid tumors, such as colorectal carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, and pancreatic cancer (1). Cetuximab is a chimeric human-murine monoclonal antibody against EGFR. Cutaneous side effects are the most common adverse reactions oc...
متن کاملEpidermal Growth Factor Receptor
A monoclonal antibody to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor of A431 cells, denoted 2Dl-IgM, was generated after fusion of immunized BALB/c mouse spleen cells with SpZ/O-Ag14 myeloma cells, Specific binding of 2D1-IgM to the A431 cell-surface receptor for EGF was demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, and immunoblot analysis. Scatchard analysis of lz6I-EGF bi...
